William Ernest Henley Quotes About Spring

Quotes about: Spring

• Love, which is lust, is the Lamp in the Tomb.
  Love, which is lust, is the Call from the Gloom.
  Love, which is lust, is the Main of Desire.
  Love, which is lust, is the Centric Fire.
  So man and woman will keep their trust,
  Till the very Springs of the Sea run dust.
  Yea, each with the other will lose and win,
  Till the very Sides of the Grave fall in.
  For the strife of Love's the abysmal strife,
  And the word of Love is the Word of Life.
  And they that go with the Word unsaid,
  Though they seem of the living, are damned and dead.

  William Ernest Henley

  Life, Running, Spring

  William Ernest Henley, Robert Louis Stevenson (1970). “The Works of W. E. Henley: Poems”

• Life - life - life! 'Tis the sole great thing
  This side of death,
  Heart on heart in the wonder of Spring!

  William Ernest Henley

  Life, Spring, Heart

  William Ernest Henley (1901). “Hawthorn and Lavender with Other Verses”

• The nightingale has a lyre of gold, The lark's is a clarion call, And the blackbird plays but a boxwood flute, But I love him best of all. For his song is all the joy of life, And we in the mad spring weather, We two have listened till he sang Our hearts and lips together.

  William Ernest Henley
